Stranger Things is known to have given back plenty to the people who brought it to life. Be it romances in real life or riches that will last a long time, it would be surprising to think that its very creators, Matt Duffer and Ross Duffer, might not have received just as much of an abundance. 

Add a few other cinematic spins and assets to their portfolio, and the Duffer Brothers have quite a healthy net worth for 2026. 

Although they are often collectively addressed, Matt Duffer and Ross Duffer have accumulated separate roundings as individual members of the industry. Matt Duffer leads the way with a whopping $40 million net worth. Ross Duffer stands right behind with an estimated $16 million cash flow, as per Celebrity Net Worth. 

Besides creating Stranger Things, in which both brothers also hold writing credits in several episodes, they have collaborated in creating the 2015 film Hidden and four episodes of the show, Wayward Pines. In terms of assets, Matt Duffer is the owner of a $6.1 million residence in Los Angeles, as per Celebrity Net Worth. Ross Duffer follows suit with a $5.4 million residence, also in Los Feliz, Los Angeles.

To go hand in hand with their pockets, Stranger Things, with all five of its seasons, is an asset in itself. 

The Stranger Things finale alone earned $25-28 million, courtesy of its theatre screening, as per Variety's tallying. Parrot Analytics has, on the other hand, calculated Stranger Things' total gains towards Netflix to be $1 billion, as per Time Magazine in October 2025. As of 2025, Stranger Things' most-watched season is its fourth, with 1.8 billion hours of viewing on Netflix, in addition to having the biggest weekly viewing number.

Along with becoming a streaming blockbuster and Netflix's top-watched original, Stranger Things has garnered the Duffer Brothers' fortune aplenty. Whether one likes its finale or not, the show has undoubtedly left the longer-standing audience with something of a souvenir from their childhood.
